David Cole is a Jewish researcher and filmmaker who specialised into World War II reasearch, particularly into the controversial claims about homocidal gas chambers. He came to the defense of Ernst Zündel when Zündel needed defending. Subsequently, Zündel and Cole made a film in Auschwitz, with David Cole pointing out all the things wrong with that theme park of hate against Germans.

Cole went into hiding after he was hounded by the self-styled Jewish Defense League, eventually terrorised into a half-hearted and unconvincing recantation in 1998. He came out of hiding in 2013 revealing that he has been using the name David Stein since 1998 and admitting that his 1998 recantation was fake telling the Guardian "I haven't changed my views. But I regret I didn't have the facility with language that I have now. I was just a kid." During this period Cole/Stein became a well known conservative Republican in Hollywood running Republican Party Animals, a social club for Hollywood conservatives and blogging at countercontempt.com

Ernst Zundel (born April 24, 1939) is a German-born publisher, author and civil rights activist. He is a towering figure in the worldwide Holocaust revisionist movement and a free speech martyr. For more than seven years he was imprisoned, first in Canada and then in Germany, solely for the peaceful expression of non-conformist views.
Ernst Zundel began to dedicate himself to the great task of redeeming the sullied reputation of his fellow Germans. Through his Samisdat publishing house he distributed worldwide a prodigious quantity of books, booklets and leaflets.

Zundel is probably best known for his central role in the "Holocaust Trials" of 1985 and 1988. He was brought to court in Toronto on a charge of "publishing false news", and specifically for publishing a reprint edition of Richard Harwood's booklet entitled: Did Six Million Really Die?, originally published in England by the Historical Review Press.

Zundel's two lengthy trials - the 1985 trial lasted two months, and the 1988 trial lasted four months - have been the closest thing anywhere to full scale debates on the Holocaust issue. For the first time ever, "Holocaust survivors" and Holocaust historians were closely and critically questioned under oath about their claims and views.

He continued his campaigns for justice and truth, and on September 19, 1992 was in London to address, with David Irving and Gregory Lauder-Frost, a Clarendon Club meeting of over 300 people on "The Media - Friend or Enemy of our Freedoms".

Returning to Canada, his position there continued to deteriorate, and in 2005 Judge Pierre Blais stripped Zundel of his citizenship and ordered his deportation to Germany after a corrupt and unjust court case, rife with conflict of interest - Blais was a former federal Minister of Justice in charge of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service which provided secret evidence in the proceedings.

Zundel was then tried again in Germany and imprisoned for Holocaust Denial. From 2003 until 2010, he was the most prominent political prisoner in the western world. He was freed in March 2010. However, he lives under onerous conditions in Germany and the possibility of being re-arrested at any time for thoughtcrimes looms over him.

Energetic, tenacious and courageous, he is dauntless in struggle against apparently insurmountable odds and seemingly invincible adversaries. He is the author of countless booklets, newsletters and essays. He is very popular in some parts of the world. Sweden in particular harbors sympathy for his plight, and he is welcome to come to the Aryan motherland for protection.

He is married to Dr. Ingrid Rimland Zundel.
